Albion's players have underlined their Premier League quality in a stunning four-game unbeaten run under caretaker Darren Moore.

It has seen the Baggies give themselves some hope of beating the drop after drawing with Swansea, stunning Manchester United at Old Trafford, holding Liverpool and winning at Newcastle.

But the bottom club still need to win both their remaining games against Spurs and Crystal Palace and hope other results go their way to avoid the drop.

Already several players have been tipped to quit if they go down with the likes of Jonny Evans, Salomon Rondon, Gareth Barry and Nacer Chadli having relegation clauses. Craig Dawson is wanted by Europe-bound Burnley.

McClean admitted: “Everyone wants to play Premier League football so I do think there will obviously be a lot of people looking at their next move or their future come the summer if we do go down.

“The fans just see it as if you do go down and players leave then you're a snake , or you have taken the club for a ride and this and that.

“But we've got families as well, we need to look after them.

“We've also got a career to look after as well, we want to be the best we can be. You have to look after yourself first and foremost.”

Irish winger McClean has been recalled into the starting line up for all four of Albion's games under Moore to add energy and tenacity.

The team's resurgence has ensured Moore is now set to be interviewed in the summer too for the permanent Hawthorns job. He will face competition from Leicester No.2 Michael Appleton and Brentford boss Dean Smith.

But whoever takes charge will be heartened by the quality and attitude shown since unpopular Alan Pardew was sacked after just one win in 18 League games.

McClean explained: “Since the big man has come in, look on the pitch now and we know what we're doing.

“People from outside will say: 'you're professional footballers, you should know what you're doing anyway'.

“We were told to go out and play but we didn't really work on how we play that way. We were told to play with more freedom but you've got a group of players who, under our previous manager Tony Pulis, were more defensive and a lot more drilled.

“We were told to go out and play a different way without really working on that.

“It's always difficult when you're bottom of the league, you're low on confidence, so he (Moore) just gave everyone a confidence boost, reminded everyone they were good players.”
